SPECTRA Summer Teachers Workshops

June 21-25 and August 23-27, 2004

The Physics Program at the University of La Verne (ULV), in
collaboration with Jet
Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), will be offering two inquiry-based workshops to
secondary teachers of physics and physical science during the summer of 2004.
(Community college professors are also welcome to apply.) The primary goal of
these free, full-day, week-long workshops is to enable teachers to learn more
about Hubble Space Telescope (HST) research and how they might incorporate it
into their curricula. Daily activities will include:

· lectures by JPL scientists active in HST research,
· units on extra-solar planets, the interstellar medium, star death, and
planetary nebulae,
· topics linked to the latest California State Science
Education Standards
· hands-on classroom projects involving HST data,
· a tour of JPL, and
· a nighttime star observing session.

For more information and to apply on-line go to:

The application deadline is May 15, 2004.
